Property Price & Volume Trends
The average property price in TS9 is £340,000, close to the national median. Over the past decade, prices have grown at 2.8% per year—below the national average, reflecting more modest appreciation than many regions. Transaction activity has softened recently, with 182 sales in the latest full year compared to a 10-year average of 209, suggesting a modestly slower market.
Rent & Yield Trends
Rents in the broader TS area are among the lowest in the country, at £668 per month. Rental growth has been similarly slow, averaging 2.9% annually—well below the national pace. The flat yield currently stands at 6.6%, meaningfully higher than the 10-year average of 5.8%, indicating that returns for buy-to-let investors have recently improved.
Income & Affordability Trends
Average household income is £39,500, slightly above the national middle. The price-to-income ratio of 8.3x has deteriorated since 2016 (when it was 7.4x), suggesting that property affordability for owner-occupiers has tightened. Rental affordability, by contrast, has improved: the rent-to-income ratio has fallen from 21.9% to 20.7%, making renting more accessible relative to local earnings.
Resident Demographic Profile
TS9 has a distinctly older population: 32.1% are aged 65 and over (against a national average of 19.6%), and only 7.6% are aged 16–24 (well below the 11.0% national figure). Nearly half of all homes (48.3%) are owned outright, far above the national average of 33.7%, reflecting the area's appeal to retirees and older residents with paid-off mortgages. Professional employment is above average at 24.7%, while private renting is notably low at 12%.
